positive and permanent cure, as thou

remedy cured me-"
Mrs. Joseph Aubin, of Holyoke,

the usual remedies. AT last she began to
take Ayers sarsaparilla, and only three
bottles restored her TO perfect health.

MAGIC CITY OF THE WEST.

From the Quincy dli.) optic.

one of the busiest in the whirl and hum OF
| this surging metropolis.
l came here only as an experiment, bu,
| my fortune has been such as to induce mt
| tn make the city my permanent abiding
place.
Wichita Is, I think, destined to be
a great city, Indeed 1t is already the
commercial center of an immense ter
ritory, and in another year it will be an ed
| ucatiOnal and manufacturing one, second
to but few in the west
A thing is no sooner proposed here than
1t becomes reality. Bridges over the
rivers, churches. opera houses, colleges,
public and private buildings spring into
existence in marvellous brief space of
time. and the projects on foot are simply
stupendous
The plains, which but a few yesrs
since were the pastures of herds of buffalo,
are now plated lots of an aggres-
sively progressive city. and soon
the cosmopolitan population of a
thriving town will dwell where the wild
rcd man chased the game of the prairies

Wichita have mystical significance, but

fully based the prosperity of America in

will not be ashamed
Capital and labor live here together In
harmony, and no cOmmunistic dynamite
need never disturb the happy relation.
This is not town where Progress and
Poverty prevail according to the theory
Of anomalous George, but one in which
the one hundred dollars Of the poor man
can be invested with as fair a chance for
gain 80 the millions of the rich
This Is not bubble which can be
pricked by adversely and collapsed into

company proposes also to build branches
from its main line to Albuquerque and
Rincon, in New Mexico, 60 as to have the
most direct line between these points and
the Missouri river, and thus shorten then
distance and time between California and
the states. Ii Topeka does not secure
this line it will pass about twelve miles
west of us with its line from st. ice to
Emporia. Topeka and Shawnee county
cannot afford to let that be done. We
need more competing lines of railroad, and
the more direct and quicker time thay
nike the better. and prompt action should
be taken in this matter. If this line is
quilt from ST. Joe to Topeka. the same
company must soon have lire from To-
peka to Kansas City. The pIo-
jectors of this new road are well known
capitalists and business men of New York
and Kansas They intend to build this
road as rapidly as men and money can do
it, and 1t will become main through line
between the states and the Pacific coast,
and would bring to Topeka additional adj
vantages and prosperity.
We refer in another article in today's
paper to the progress, prospects and back
ing Of this road.
